stage 2 map today.. and clutch is slipping!

[RocketRossUK]

Seen plenty of clutch slipping on Revo and APR cars at Stage 2 on manuals, I ended up running an updated Sachs on my rocco after 30k, the IHI just gives shed loads of torque low down the rev range and you end up riding the torque curve rather than the peak power

Can't believe the dealer in question didn't notice this or say something as they can adjust the boost,mine long ever slipped in 5th and 6th

Interesting response from Revo as their rocco slipped at Stage 2 and runs a Sachs clutch

My view is most tuners need to review their tsi maps like they have for K04 cars

It seems tuner are just trying to give customers peak numbers rather than driveability.

I know people say Superchips Bluefin is just a generic map, but at least they put how it drive first and doesnt make you need to buy new parts.

Revo tune is great - juts need to spend that little more - sure it will be worth it though mate

Mine lasted less then 48hours after stage 2, The standard one isn't up to the job

But yes its worth it, A stage 2 will destroy most cars on the road,

Mine still seems to be okay, since the mishap on the first day, still going to get one purchased soon though, which one did you get jdjd if you dont mind me asking?

got my gti remapped revo stage 1 clutch started slipping bout a month later dealer wasnt interesed got a loba motorsport stage2 clutch fitted transformed the car at least you can use all the power standard clutch not up to the job

Be interesting to know if the Mk7 GTI standard clutch will fit a mk6 as the mk7 I would suspect is uprated due to the torque.

How much was it in total to have this done?

Really want to go stage 1 but just can't afford a clutch right now and this is putting me off.

My thinking has been with Bluefin for that very reason. I could be tempted but Iv'e just forked out a bit on repairs. Drop me a PM with the finer details and I'll have a think about it.
